Aaron Brown: 本访谈主要讲述了我在CIA反恐战争中的经历，包括参与本拉登行动的紧张过程以及在阿富汗霍斯特基地发生的悲剧性事件。从1997年加入美国陆军游骑兵到2009年在CIA工作，我亲历了反恐战争的多个关键时刻。在开罗学习阿拉伯语的经历，让我更好地理解了中东地区，为我后来的情报工作奠定了基础。在阿富汗霍斯特基地，我与当地团队紧密合作，参与了寻找基地组织头目艾曼·扎瓦希里的行动。2009年12月30日，霍斯特基地遭遇袭击，造成多人伤亡，这对我个人和CIA都造成了巨大的冲击。这段经历让我深刻反思了反恐战争的复杂性和挑战性。 Rhiannon Neads: 本期节目深入探讨了CIA在反恐战争中的行动，特别是本拉登行动和霍斯特基地事件。通过对Aaron Brown的采访，我们了解到CIA内部的运作方式，情报人员面临的压力和风险，以及反恐战争对个人和机构的影响。节目中也提到了奥巴马总统对本拉登行动的期望，以及行动中发生的意外事件。此外，节目还回顾了Aaron Brown的个人经历，从加入美国陆军游骑兵到成为CIA情报员的转变过程。
